Hi everyone,

I am new to the forum. I just purchase a lapis blue 06 Boxster. The first mod I would like to do is slap on some 19 inch rims. I have an opportunity to get a set of iss forged complex wheels in gun metal grey.

I have searched this forum and others. My question is what width should I go with for the rears? My choices from searches and rim manufacturers are 19x10 with either a 42mm or 36mm offset. I can possibly get a 19x10.5 with a 43mm offset similar to the wheel dynamics rpk-038.

As for the tires I will go with 265 35 19 with the 10" and 275 35 19 with the 10.5".

For the fronts the options are 19x8.5 55mm offset, 19x8.5 53mm offset, or 19x8.5 45mm offset.

Tires will be 235 35 19.

I would like to choose the right width and offset to have the tires as flush to the fender as possible. I do not want to use a spacer and haven't thought of lowering the car as yet.

I would love some advice to this so I can email my friend to get the rims started.

Thanks in advance.

 

If anyone can help. Can you also suggest what the offset would be if I went with an 11" rim?

I want to ensure that there will be no rubbing without purchasing/using a spacer.

Thanks in advance again
